Ayodhya Kand: in English rhyme

From Ayodhya Kand, the tale does start,

Of King Dasharatha’s breaking heart.

For Rama's coronation, the kingdom did cheer,

But Kaikeyi's demand brought a change severe.

To the forest, Rama was sent,

With Sita and Lakshman, in exile they went.

The city of Ayodhya, in sorrow drowned,

As Rama left for the forest ground.

Bharat returned and was deeply pained,

Seeing the throne, he thought profaned.

He sought out Rama, begged him to reign,

But Rama's duty bound him to the plain.

In sandals Bharat took Rama's place,

Ruling Ayodhya with a virtuous grace.

Thus Ayodhya Kand shows devotion so deep,

In every heart, Rama’s ideals we keep.
